LAB 9.3 test.io issue

Exercise 9.3

Step 11 (c). I am getting below error. Not sure how the /A/IN add in

master:~$ kubectl -n kube-system get configmaps coredns -o yaml
apiVersion: v1
data:
Corefile: |
.:53 {
rewrite name regex (.*).test.io {1}.default.svc.cluster.local
errors

Step 14. It's working fine.

master:~$ kubectl -n kube-system get configmaps coredns -o yaml
apiVersion: v1
data:
Corefile: |
.:53 {
rewrite stop {
name regex (.).test.io {1}.default.svc.cluster.local
answer name (.).default.svc.cluster.local {1}.test.io
}

Is there any hint on step 11?

Many Thanks.

Hi @joewangprc,

It is difficult to determine if anything is out of its place in your YAML code and outputs without the "Code" formatting tags.

When editing the Corefile content in the coredns ConfigMap some CLI tools may introduce unwanted invisible characters while pasting or when typing in new text. My recommendation is to revisit steps 8 and 12 to ensure the file only includes the desired config options after the edit.

Regards,
-Chris

Same here, works with the rewrite in step 14, doesn't work without

I have same issue in lab 9.3 : test of step 11 failed and test of step 14 works.

I found this following link "Breaking changes in ReWrite Plugin CoreDNS 1.8.4": https://github.com/coredns/coredns/issues/4834
I worked with coredns 1.8.4.

test of step 11 works well with coredns 1.8.3, 1.8.5 and 1.8.6.

I hit the same issue as you. The "dig" test returns:

root@nettool:/# dig nginx.test.io
;; ;; Question section mismatch: got nginx.default.svc.cluster.local/A/IN
;; ;; Question section mismatch: got nginx.default.svc.cluster.local/A/IN

@serewicz Please make a note somewhere in lab that it doesn't work in CoreDNS 1.8.4 for the future students it will save them time and nervous
